Reproductive Rights are Human Rights Act of 2025
This bill requires the U.S. Department of State to include specific, detailed reporting on reproductive rights in its Annual Country Reports on Human Rights Practices. It mandates descriptions of each country's policies regarding access to contraception, abortion services, and comprehensive reproductive health care, alongside data on pregnancy-related deaths, discrimination against women and LGBTQI+ individuals, and disparities based on race, disability, or other factors. The bill also directs the State Department to consult with civil society organizations and health experts to ensure thorough reporting on these issues. This change aims to align U.S. reporting with international human rights standards and address past omissions of reproductive rights from these reports.
